Solid and nice stand, good price
By ML
Well packaged. Unlike many manufacturers Bell'O did not skimp on proper packaging. I was impressed. They took extra steps to ensure the finishes would not be marred: heavy duty zip-ties, cloth tubes around the main beams, plenty of cardboard where it counts, plastic around all of the smaller parts. The bolts and other miscellaneous hardware came in their own vacuum-formed plastic over cardstock packaging, one card for stand assembly, one for television mounting. You can tell you have all hardware at a glance. I wish more manufacturers packaged this well.Very strong stand. All parts are steel. Main beams are boxed 0.070" thick steel (plenty strong). Better than average CNC welds. The three cross beams, when bolted down, make the whole stand very rigid. Barrel nuts ensure high-load areas where bolts screw in will not stretch or tear out. The barrel nuts were used for the leveling feet and for the bolts that the mounting brackets hook onto and attach to the main beams.Quick and easy assembly. Good instructions. Instructions were especially handy in helping select from the many television mounting possibilities.Wide variety of television mounting options. They seem to have covered every possible VESA mounting configuration and thrown in plenty of hardware to meet any other flat panel mounting challenge. The absolute widest mounting option appears to accommodate mounting holes up to 16.5 inches high apart by 31.75 inches wide apart. To aid in mounting, they welded bosses behind the main beam mounting bolts to ensure the hooks cannot swing down. The only limitation seems to be the 175-pound weight rating (according to their spec sheet), but that is plenty for even the largest modern flat panels (Samsung's 2010 8000-series 63-inch plasma only weighs 84 pounds without the base).Convenient cable management. Each main beam has four 1-inch by 3-inch oval-shaped holes, three up high by the television, and one down low by the furniture. Holes are big enough to make routing cables within the beams and snagging back out the bottom hole easy enough. All holes are rubber-grommeted to prevent fraying of cabling.Cons: 1. The main beams have L-shaped horizontal feet projecting only 8.5 inches to the front. While this is better than nothing, this stand with a TV mounted is not hard to tip with a little help. BUT, this stand was intended to be bolted behind a piece of furniture below the TV. (None of Bell'O's furniture offerings are quite what I am looking for but I see no reason why I could not bolt this to another piece of furniture with the help of a drill.) --Not really a con, but certainly a warning.2. No television tilt feature. Would have been nice to have. The more premium flat-panel wall-mounts have this feature. If it bothers me enough, I may adapt a tilting wall-mount (if you do this, you are on your own). Warning: most flat panel TVs cannot stand more than 15 degrees of forward tilt. Tilting a TV too far on this stand could make the whole system very prone to tipping forward.Misc. note: The L-shaped main beam feet are 1-5/8 inches thick by themselves and 2-1/16 inches thick overall with the leveling feet fully screwed in. Keep this in mind when shopping for the furniture piece that those feet need to slip under from behind. Bell'O advertises that this stand works with much of their home entertainment furniture.Overall, nice black satin finish, very rigid, very strong, easy to assemble, convenient cable routing, and probably can mount every brand of flat panel TV. I am very satisfied with the value.----------UPDATE:There are two 3/4-inch high boxed horizontal supports running between the vertical posts, the lower horizontal is 20 to 20-3/4 inches from the floor (with TV weight on the stand and on carpet), the horizontal at the top is 58 to 58.75 inches from the ground. Overall height of the stand itself is 58-3/4 inches from the ground. I am not using the adjustable feet, which might give you up to one more inch of height to the stand. The vertical slots that allow you to bolt this stand to furniture fit a 3/8-inch SAE bolt and are 15-1/4 inches apart (at their centers) and are 18-3/8 to 21-1/4 inches from the floor.I just had to have a tilt feature so I adapted Bell'O's Tilting Wall Mount (#8315DB) (it came in a box with black, yellow, and red "...For Dummies" markings). This tilting wall mount was packed as well as the stand and also had a generous amount of hardware organized on a card... another excellent Bell'O product. I chose this particular tilting wall mount because its main supports that mount to the wall are horizontal and would give me the most versatility to mount to the stand. Some wall mounts have vertical main supports which rely on the wall studs being spaced apart a certain amount (or in this case, my TV stand's vertical supports) which does not always happen. To adapt this to my stand, I drilled four holes in the verticals in ideal spots that miss the bosses that support the original non-tilting TV mount. My holes, generously fitting 5/16" bolts, ended up being approx. 1-1/8 and 6-7/8 inches down from the top of the verticals and 13-5/8" apart (the hole centers are ~3/4 inch from the inside wall to help resist crushing the opposing walls when the bolts are tightened down). The top bolts went through both walls of the verticals (be careful not to over-tighten the nuts and collapse the walls; use Grade 5 or 8 washers to better distribute the pressure). The lower bolts barely miss the previously mentioned bosses and are accessible through the upper cable pass-through hole so I could use a shorter bolt and thread the nut pretty tight without worrying about crushing the front and rear vertical walls (careful not to drop the nuts and washers down the tube). Grade 5 SAE 5/16" bolts, nuts, and washers hold the tilting wall mount to the stand (1-inch-long lower bolts and 2 or 2-1/2-inch upper bolts depending on the thickness of your mount and number of threads left after the washers).the TV itself is 35-3/4 inches tall overall and the bottom of the TV ended up being ~36-5/8 inches from the ground. The rear panel of the TV is 2-3/4 inches from the front of the stand's vertical supports (using the #8315DB tilting wall mount). Holding the original mounts from the stand to the back of this, it appears the TV would mount maybe an inch closer to the stand using the mounts that came with the stand. Since the L-shaped horizontal feet project only 8.5 inches to the front, I would not want my TV mounting to much further forward, even if it is usually bolted to furniture. Having some room in front of the TV and a 27-inch high credenza I can sit my center channel speaker's tweeters at ear level without interfering with the TV's viewable surface... which was my goal with this stand.----------UPDATE #2 (adding a cabinet):I finally decided on what to use as a cabinet in front of this stand and below the TV. I needed a cabinet that will work with this stand (sit on top of the horizontal legs and bolt to them in the rear to make the TV mount rock-steady). I also wanted something with a nice black finish, metal, lockable, approx. 60" wide, not too deep (21 to 24"), and just the right height. The height was critical and had been part of the overall plan with how the TV was mounted the entire time. I wanted to set the center channel speaker on top of the cabinet and have the center channel's tweeters at the same height as the tweeters in the matching floor-standing front speakers (on the left and right), but the cabinet cannot be too high such that the center channel speaker gets in the TV viewable area. The Bell'O stand comes with adjustable feet that I did not originally use but ended up using to get the TV a little higher once I placed the cabinet in front of the TV and had actual installed measurements to work with (furniture sitting on carpet can tweak the calculated heights).After a lot of research I found two ways to get an attractive black metal cabinet fitting my other wants: Can-Am (avcabinet.com) and Stanley Vidmar. With both brands I have options to customize the overall size and fine-tune the layout with modular doored cabinets with optional solid and roll-out shelves; and drawers of the right height (to accept CD, DVD, and Blu-ray cases with the spine label facing up). They also would clear the Bell'O stand legs and could be bolted to the stand. Both options would cost between $1000 and $1600 (both also have to be freighted) depending on what options I went with, so I spent a lot of time getting to know both products really well and double-checking what other options may be available. Even though both brands had similar modular doored cabinet and media drawer options that would allow me to put two units side-by-side for approx. 60" width (and a height I could work with), the Stanley Vidmar edged out the Can-Am mainly because it would make to most use of the interior volume: the Can-Am sits on a frame/pedestal that eats up a few usable inches of height (this makes for a very strong cabinet base and can have adjustable screw feet similar to the Bell'O stand to allow the base to clear the Bell'O stand legs underneath).The Stanley Vidmar cabinet is actually two 30"-wide shallow depth (21.5" deep) desk-height (27" high) cabinets bolted together side-by-side (they are meant to be bolted together so no holes need to be drilled, little black caps fill the holes on the outer sides). I have three #45 drawers in the cabinet on one side (#45 is perfect height for CD, DVD, Blu-ray cases to sit with spine label up) and a doored cabinet on the other side to hold gaming consoles on the middle and upper roll-out shelves and heavy bulky unsightly power conditioning at the bottom. All of the locks were matched. Before taking the Stanley Vidmar doored cabinet in the house, I cut slotted holes in the back just big enough to pass power and data cables through (and dressed the edges of the holes with split PVC tubing to prevent cable fraying). After I bolted the cabinets together, I lined them up to the Bell'O stand. The cross-bar on the front of the Bell'O's bottom legs had to be removed and the stand's legs barely clears the legs on the bottom of the joined Stanley Vidmar cabinets (each 30" cabinet has its own legs, something the Can-Am frame/pedestal base avoids in return for the couple of inches of height it consumes). I adjusted the height of the Bell'O stand with its screw feet to get the TV a little higher so the viewable area would clear the center channel speaker now sitting on the Stanley Vidmar cabinet. The height of the slots in the Bell'O stand miss the rear bolt holes in the thicker upper metal 'frame' of the Stanley Vidmars so I had to carefully measure and drill some new holes in the Bell'O vertical legs in order to bolt the TV stand to the custom cabinet (I had someone hold a shop-vac near where I was drilling to help catch metal shavings and then used a magnet to make sure I got them all out of the carpet).The other metal cabinets I researched often looked like the utility/garage cabinets that they were (not acceptable in a nice living room) and were usually too poor a build quality for my desires (especially thin metal walls and poor framework that would not help keep the TV stand rock-steady and might resonate with the speakers).The cabinet and TV stand and the nearby A/V rack all have a similar black finish, the cabinet and stand are rock-steady, the center channel speaker is at the right height, and I am very happy with the results (if I forget about the price tag of the cabinets).

Things you should know
By Glen V. Hansen
The product even though had all of it parts in the box as to the items list in the manual, they forgot to include nuts in the list and in the box, Since I have a fairly nice work shop it wasn't a big issue for me. It did go together fairly easy and it very well build and is very sturdy and very professionally looking piece as to match my entertainment center. It is well worth the price I bought it for. My son and I put it together which I discovered that you must have two people on this project.I love the hollow support beams which allows access to insert the other TV components wires to be hidden so that you don't have any dangling wires from the TV set itself for all to be seen. The only other complaint is, I have a 58" Samsung Plasma set, and this doesn't leave any type of adjustments for as to how high or low you can adjust it. I had to have it on the highest setting in order to hang it, which is just about where I wanted it to be. Actually I wanted it to be a little higher up so as my center speaker would fit a little better under the Plasma T.V. set better for my surround sound.

By C. Bridges
I purchased this stand simply to get my TV a bit higher off the ground so my 15 month old boy wouldn't be able to get to it.The packaging itself is fine and not very heavy. It was easy enough to assemble and was solid when finished. The only caveat I can speak of is the n=mounting hardware included with this unit.I have a new 55" Samsung 3D LED TV. The directions said it included mounting hardware for almost all newer TV's on the market. Not the case as none of the combinations would work with my set. I had to go to the hardware store and get some additional screws, brackets and washers to be able to mount my TV.Just be aware that even if you have a brand name TV, you may need to purchase additional hardware to mount correctly.
